Tennessee rifles date from the late flint period, through the percussion period. Often trimmed in iron, sometimes in brass, these rifles usually feature fine imported locks, double set triggers and figured curly maple stocks. Many have primitive hand forged furniture and long tangs. Poor boy style rifles may omit the buttplate, entry pipe and muzzle cap. These single screw sideplates are inlet flush to the lock panel surface.

Machined steel, .125" thick, counter bored for a 3/8" diameter lock bolt, made in the USA.
